It is very important for customers to know how to discern the genuine leather from the false. We can often hear the word of genuine leather. When we compare the genuine leather with synthetic leather, we used to use this word. Different true leathers have totally different qualities. Therefore the different leathers have different prices.

Pigskin, cow leather, sheepskin, and horsehide are most familiar leather in our life. Cow leather can be divided into buffalo hide and cattle hide. Sheepskin concludes two kinds: goat skin and ovine skin. Sheepskin often has three tiers. Furs leather can be divided into fox furs leather, goat furs leather, rabbit hair furs leather, and mink furs leather. Fox can be divided into blue fox, silver fox and red fox. Goat can be divided into adult goat and minor goat. Rabbit can be divided into straw color rabbit, Rex Rabbit and white rabbit. Mink can be divided into male mink and female mink. There are many kinds of leather and furs leather. Here I can not completely list them for you.

Glossy leather is very common in the leather. This kind of leather is good on its tension intensity and it is wearable. It also has good air permeability. Suede leather's facade is graceful and its air permeability is wonderful. But, it is easy to be dirty and it is hard to keep it clean. If you are in a dirty condition, it will be more difficult. Shoes will collect the dirt in the air and it can be destroyed by water. There is modified leather. On the cover of this leather, we can press different lines. However, to some extent, this kind of leather has bad abrasion performance and air permeability.
Now, companies mainly produce the clothes made of pigskin, sheepskin, cow leather and furs leather. People process these animals' skins and make clothes for human beings. The same leather can be processed to many different leathers because of the improvement of the technology. So customers can not distinguish the kinds of the leather. We can see to many types in the shops and we can not choose well.

So here are four useful ways of discerning the true leathers from the fake. First, you can touch it. If you touch leather which is glossy, lithe and plump, then you can sure that it is the true leather. The second one is your eye view. You can distinguish the kinds and its cover. The cover of genuine leather has obvious pores and lines. Synthetic leather's cover has also some pores, but they are not clear. In addition, I will give you a very simple way to discern the genuine leather. On the other side of synthetic leather, there is a layer of dry goods. It is used to increase its tension strength. However, there is not a layer of dry goods on the other side of the genuine leather. Thirdly, you can smell it. If you hold genuine leather, you can only smell the leather's odor. There is no other strange smell. Sometimes the excessive use of industrial chemicals will cause this peculiar taste. The forth one is to light it. If you light the genuine leather, its smell is similar with people's alight hair's. The leather will be powder and you can not see any pimples. But the synthetic leather will be a pimple and you can smell a pungent smell.
